September 12; The government plans to use the continuing transfer of territorial control to Palestinians to establish a physical separation of the two populations.

September 10; The UN is trying to get one of Israel's weapons declared in violation of the Geneva Conventions. The weapon is a flechette shell fired by the 120mm gun on Israeli tanks. The shell explodes 500 meters over the target, showering the ground below with 8-12 thousand five centimeter (two inch) steel darts. The flechettes cover a circular area roughly 500 meters from the shell. Civilians are often killed or injured when they are near a target under Israeli fire. In 1993, a UN official was killed. The Israelis regularly use the shells in south Lebanon.
